Painted some interior stuff

I've been working on this stuff for a month or so...in between work...(I work at a body shop) Painted them sunlight silver like the car and put a bunch of coats of clear. Tell me what you think. Sorry for the blurry pics on some...my camera was dying, so I had to take them quick.

















Here's my SUPER COOL blue led's

05: that looks really really great! very good finish product.

i now feel like doing something similar, but i have a velocity red on red interior...so can't think of how'd it'll look if i went silver like you did.

and, did you have to use fine sand paper on all the parts you were goin to paint to get the glossy look?

personally, i think only your color combination turns out looking good. since i already have matching red interior to go with the exterior... there won't be much point for me to paint parts to match. more silver in my car might just overthrow the red/blk theme...

hmmm... nice job again. well thought out and matches perfect. it be nice if they offer something like that for cars that don't have the red on red combo.

I agree, the paint job itself looks great. Although I would have stopped at the door panel and backseat pieces. The radio/hvac controls look more like a big CD now.
